Recent debates in the United States are raising concerns and sparking questions here in Canada. At a time like this, it is essential to ground our conversations in evidence and to affirm our shared values.

Current scientific evidence does not support suggestions that taking acetaminophen (Tylenol) during pregnancy is linked to autism.

Discussions about autism must be guided by respect, accuracy, and inclusion. Oversimplified claims about “causes” and the use of stigmatizing language are unacceptable and distract from the real priority—creating a Canada where autistic people are respected as full citizens and included fully in every aspect of society.

We stand in solidarity with the autism community, their families and supporters. We join our partner, the Autism Alliance of Canada, and are in support of their recent statement.

🤔Imaginez si plus de 8 millions de personnes en situation de handicap au Canada posaient à leur candidat local la question suivante : « Que ferez-vous pour améliorer la vie des personnes en situation de handicap? Et maintenant, imaginez l’impact si leurs amis, leurs familles et leurs alliés faisaient de même!

Inclusion Canada a créé nos Priorités électorales 2025, « Ensemble plus forts ».

📢Nous appelons tous les candidats des partis politiques à lire nos priorités, à s'informer et à s'engager à améliorer la vie des personnes avec des handicaps intellectuels et de leurs familles.

L’inclusion scolaire profite à tous.

Ça ressemble à ça l’inclusion au Nouveau-Brunswick.

L'inclusion scolaire ça veut dire que nous répondons aux besoins des élèves avec ou sans incapacité, en mettant en place les mesures de soutien nécessaires.

[Inclusion NB @InclusionNB]

Inclusive education is flexible.

This is inclusion in New Brunswick.

Sometimes, students may need to be supported outside of the classroom, but returning to learn with their peers is always the goal.

REMINDER: There's still time to register for our webinar on partial day attendance in schools, happening later today!

A classroom where everyone is welcome.

This is inclusion in New Brunswick.

The more time any student - with or without a disability - spends in an inclusive setting, the better the outcomes are for their development.

[Inclusion NB @InclusionNB]

Une salle de classe où tout le monde est le bienvenu.

Ça ressemble à ça l’inclusion au Nouveau-Brunswick.

Plus un élève, avec ou sans incapacité, passe de temps dans un environnement inclusif, meilleurs sont les résultats pour son développement.
